You should put that on mugs and T-shirts.
The Haaland goal, to me, felt like... It felt like if you're playing... You know sometimes you have to play someone's kid on a computer game?
You're playing FIFA and it's like, oh, you're playing against your nephew or something.
And suddenly your nephew's actually really quite good and they get 3-1 up and you're like, all right, I'm going to have to just put you in your place a little bit here.
You just run them up and score a goal.
Haaland was like, come on, no, no.
And the funniest thing was the fans leaving.
Do you see the fans leaving?
And then coming back in, like...
Yeah, I agree.
I don't think I understand anything that goes on when it comes to Chelsea.
And the thing of expecting them to be a hard game kind of reminds me of this Manchester United problem that I had for many years.
I've only really, I've just kicked it in time for them to get a lot better, that I always assumed Manchester United were a tough team to face for years after that wasn't the case because they are Manchester United and I grew up watching them win games in the 175th minute when they were...
dead and buried you know i still associated this kind of this kind of feelings what manchester united are and it's a bit like that with chelsea like you know what are they now they're not they're also just very hard to work out because they're they just seem like a collection of freelancers playing together it's like it's almost like they're gonna move they're gonna move from stanford bridge to a we work aren't they
They should.
They should become like the Harlem Globetrotters.
They should become just a team that play in any city that will have them every week.
I mean, it is genuinely, from a sort of neutral perspective, it's quite sad to see the depths they've sunk to in a certain regard, though they're not a club that is that easy to feel sorry for.
But yeah, I don't understand them, but every week I seem to recalibrate how good I think Chelsea are and it always goes downwards, basically.
Well, I thought we were going to do a whole part on this, but I'll condense it briefly.
